Veritaserum forces you to tell "the truth", but        > this returns what your mind believes it is the truth              Yet when Dumbledore recovered from Morfin his true memories about the night       Voldemort confronted him, he tried to use those memories to free Morfin from       the charges that he had murdered the Riddle Family and thus free him from       Azkaban! In other words,        Dumbledore expected the Morfin memory to prove to the MoM that Morfin was       innocent! I'm assuming that the MoM must have had a way to verify that a       Pensieve memory showing is accurate. Otherwise, Dumbledore wouldn't have       bothered!              By the same token, I figured that viewing Harry's memories of his       confrontation with Voldemort would convince people of the truth of his story!              Could the Aurors have verified Harry's story by going to the graveyard where       harry claimed to have seen Voldemort?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
